Without a nose

XII

It happened so quickly, before i knew it the crank was lying lifeless besides me. I felt lifeless.

"Leah, what the hell were you thinking?" He shouted, it made me jump.

"I didn't think anything of it, i just went to get my pillow." I shouted back, i wasn't going to let him shout at me like that.

"You could have died." I shouted again, i saw his veins pop out.

"So what?" I shouted back, as i grabbed my pillow from the ground and started to walk off.

"Leah don't walk away from me." He ran up to me and turned me around to face him. He wasn't looking in my eyes, he was looking at my nose.

I quickly moved my hand up when i felt blood trickle down. was it gone?

It was still there. It was not long to be off but it was still there. How the hell was it still there.

"Your an idiot." Gally said stern but i could tell he was smiling slightly.

"Well my nose is hanging off, help please." I held onto my nose, just to make sure it wouldn't drop off.

We headed back and my nose was hurting so much, it was hardly bare able. We tried to get back as quick as we could because there was a lot of blood.

We got back and quietly stepped through everyone and headed to Gally's room. There was a pool of blood in my hands and i could taste it in my mouth.

"What the fuck am i supposed to do. " I whispered angrily.

" i dunno probably sew it back on or something." He said whispering as loud as he could from across the room where he was grabbing something.

"Sew it?" I whispered and my voice cracked.

"There's nothing else i can do, I don't even think i can do it. " He walked back over to me with a piece of cloth to hold on my nose.

"Then who?" I asked holding the cloth over my nose.

"Newt." He walked out the room and then i was a little scared of being on my own.

He returned with Newt behind him who was rubbing his eyes.

"What did you wake me up for Gally?" He said slightly annoyed.

"For this. " Gally came and sat next to me and moved my hands away from my nose slowly revealing my nose to Newt.

"Oh shit." He said in shock, staring at me nose.

"Your the only one i know can sew it. " Gally said putting the cloth back on my nose.

"Are you mental? i've done it once." Newt replied.

"More than anyone else has." He replied.

"Fine, have you got the stuff?" Newt crossed is arms.

Gally got up and got the stuff and he pulled out a needle.

"Woh, woh, your not bringing a needle anywhere near me." I didn't bother to whisper just spoke a little quietly.

"Do you any to have a nose." Gally looked up to me, i nodded my head rapidly. "Then shut up then." He turned back to what he was doing.

A few minutes past and now i had my back against the wall with Newt on my left and Gally on my right.

"This is going to hurt isn't it?"

"yep." Newt said.

I took a deep breath and then he stuck the needle in. I wanted to scream but stopped myself because i didn't want to wake anyone. I was clenching onto my leg tight and i felt my nails dog into my skin. Then i felt a hand placed above it and Gall take my hand.

Newt had his tongue stuck out to the side in concentration, and his eyes didn't blink once. I closed my eyes and clenched Gally's hand.

After around ten minutes, Newt pulled away and i was relieved.

"It's not perfect but your nose isn't falling off anymore. " Newt said blankly.

"Thank you. " I smiled at him.

"No problem, just don't bloody get ur hose almost bit off again." He laughed, then he left.

Me and Gally stayed in silence for a while before i finally spoke.

"Can you stay with me?" I said shakily.

"I'm not leaving you anyway, you don't have a choice." He smiled.

"Thank you. "I looked down at my hands picking at the skin around my nails.

"Your tired, go to sleep i'll sleep on the floor. " He spoke louder than me.

"No." I looked up then moved so i was lying down, then patted the space next to me.

"But there's hardly any room." He looked at the space then at me.

"Just lie down." I said annoyed and he did what i said.

I sat up and grabbed his arm and put it behind me. Then moved closer to him laying my head on his chest. He responded by smiling and moving his arm so it was hooked around me and i smiled without realising.

Maybe i was warming up to him.
